Martin Scorsese's HUGO

After watching the classic, shootfest film Taxi Driver I know Martin Scorsese films should be part of my DVD archive. Using Travis Bickle(played by Robert De Niro) as my Blogger profile picture for more than a year here is a testament and my sincere tribute/homage for Scorsese's greatness and brilliance in film directing. In my opinion, he is the best Hollywood director that should have won more awards than what he actually earned.

This coming 23rd day of November, there will be a worldwide premiere for Martin Scorsese's much-awaited adaptation of Brian Selznick's YA novel "The Invention of Hugo Cabret," simply titled in the film as "HUGO." This book is actually a cross-genre novel (historical fiction, picture novel, sci fi, steampunk) but highly recommended and suitable for readers of YA fiction.
